<p>Setting cursor options can help illustrate the action you are recording by drawing attention to the area where the action happens. The following cursor effects can be selected:</p>
<ul>
	<li><p>Hide Cursor - The cursor will be hidden during screen capture.</p></li>
	<li>Show Cursor
		<ul>
			<li><p>Use Actual Cursor - The actual shape and position of the cursor will be recorded during screen capture.</p></li>
			<li><p>Use Custom Cursor - Replace the recorded cursor with a customized one.</p></li>
			<li><p>Use Cursor From File - Replace the recorded cursor with a cursor that is loaded from file.</p></li>
		</ul>
	</li>
	<li><p>Highlight Cursor - When this option is selected, the recorded cursor will have a highlight area around it. This helps in calling attention to the movements of the cursor. You can set the shape, size and color of the highlight area.</p></li>
</ul>
